The commoditization of certain sensor types further intensify this issue, requiring innovation to reduce production costs.


Europe Pressure Sensors Market Trends

Automotive Industry to Show Significant Growth


- The industry is engaged in efforts to increase efficiency and ensure greater control accuracy of engines as it moves towards compliance with global regulations on the environment in Europe. For the control of gasoline and diesel engines, a higher level of accuracy is required for pressure sensors to monitor conditions like air volume and exhaust gas pressures in EGR systems and increase their efficiency.
- In addition, the use of pressure sensors in automobiles needs to be highly accurate and very low priced due to an increasing number of applications for pressure sensors that include barometric pressure sensors, which are used along with altitude correction during road travel at altitudes higher than 500 meters.
- Many European automobile manufacturers are located here, which has been a critical factor in the increasing use of pressure sensors in this region. A significant driver for using pressure sensors in Europe is increasing government standards and safety requirements at the company level. Some of the major countries that have contributed to this market growth are Germany and the United Kingdom.
- Moreover, according to the World's Top Exports, among continents, European countries sold the highest dollar worth of automotive parts exports during 2023. In 2023, Germany exported motor vehicle parts to the value of about USD 67 billion, making it the leading exporting country of such items.
- Many European countries, such as Germany and Sweden, are increasing their automotive safety standards. As a result, Europe is estimated to be the fastest-growing market for pressure sensors for automotive breaking applications over the forecast period.


Germany to Hold the Highest Market Share


- Germany's automotive industry is crucial, leading the world in producing cars and trucks. In high-technology automotive products, e.g., automated driving systems, Germany has also become one of the most powerful countries in the world. Germany's automobile sector made a revenue of approximately EUR 558.11 billion (USD 583.64 billion) in 2023. This amounted to an increase compared to about EUR 506 billion (USD 529.15 billion) in 2022.
- The strong demand from the automotive industry is primarily responsible for the pressure sensors sector. The immense demand for pressure sensors from the automotive industry has been caused by stringent government rules concerning their use in various applications. Moreover, manufacturers and suppliers of the German automotive industry will make more than EUR 220 billion (USD 230.07 billion) in investments in Electric Mobility from 2022 until 2026, as well as Digitalisation. This can be one of the significant factors for the growth of the studied market in the country.
- Germany is the world's largest producer of lignite. The power generation industry is also evolving rapidly in Europe. As the pressure sensor implies substantial benefits in power plants, the demand for a pressure sensor in Europe's power generation industry is expected to be significantly boosted.
- Owing to the prominence of manufacturing in the country, the scope of automation is significant, and with it, enterprises are increasingly adopting robotic solutions to automate processes. According to IFR, in 2023, Germany had the fourth-highest robot density in the world and number one in Europe. About 28,355 units were installed in 2023, representing a growth of 3.2% compared to the previous years. Such developments in the country are expected to further the need for pressure sensors to operate indoor and outdoor robotics installations.
